> It is fascinating how much the "micro-transaction" model on the iOS platform continues to bury everything else.
It's not only iOS, it's exactly the same thing on Android. Some companies also tried it on Vita and PS3 with games like Rainbow Moon and Destiny of Spirits, but ultimately failed. Interestingly i've also been able to get people to completely drop free-to-pay games by getting them other hardware like PS Vita or Nintendo 3DS.
So basically the only platforms where this happens are the two primary cellphone platforms.
